Important question: is the frog our symbol of resistance to be replicated? If we dress as the frog for the 10/18 protest or for Halloween is it stolen valor or are we all frogs now? Asking for me. @wilsonxcassie.bsky.social please consult the OG at your earliest convenience.

@jamellebouie.net Are you keeping up with what's being broadcast on Fox and the like? I never watch, so I have no idea what their version of events is. Could it be Fox?

The people showing up to protest in inflatable animal costumes are doing way way better resistance counter-propaganda than any of the left-wing militia defense types who show up to civil defense actions in their cosplay operator gear.

Gonna start calling these guys the inflada.

An accused Defendant does not have to prove ANYTHING. If I present zero evidence at trial, and the state has not proved its case, my client walks.

*EVERY* ACCUSED DEFENDANT *IS* INNOCENT UNTIL PROVED OTHERWISE.

I see a lot of people saying that a person charged with a crime deserves the chance to prove their innocence.

Please stop doing this because you have it backwards and this is really important.

It is ALWAYS the government's burden to prove a person guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

What are the odds that a Mariners fan (on the road) wearing a "hit your 61st homerun here" shirt would then actually catch the baseball for the guy's 61st homerun? (Okay, it said "dump 61 here" but that's what it means.)

And he was fully prepared to catch #62! 😂

(Later he got to meet Cal Raleigh.)

Brian Floyd @brianmfloyd.bsky.social · 1d

the guy who caught cal raleigh’s homer was wearing a shirt that said dump 61 here and he immediately took it off and had a shirt that said dump 62 here
